Women in surgery: Analysis of female surgeons in Turkey
ANNALS OF CLINICAL AND ANALYTICAL MEDICINE(2022)
摘要
Aim: When it comes to choosing a medical specialization, the current worldwide lack of interest among women in the surgical branches of medicine is noticeable. Furthermore, the ratio of women to men is quite low and can be attributed to many negative issues. Material and Methods: We administered a 98-question survey to 196 female surgeons from different branches of medicine. The data were recorded in Microsoft Excel and analyzed using SPSS version 22.0 software. Results: Our study investigated the factors affecting the progress of women in surgical careers and included 196 participants. The majority of the surgeons who completed the research questions were employees of neurosurgical departments (36.2%). Of the 196 study participants, 49.0% were >40 years of age, and 51.0% were <= 39 years of age. Among the surgeons included in our study, 42.6% stated that they had experienced negative interactions with their male colleagues. The participants responded that the good side of being a surgeon was the ability to perform surgery (87.7%), creating differences in patient outcomes (70.4%), and the diversity of tasks (32.1%). Discussion: Currently, over 50% of medical school students are women, and the surgical profession is typically male-dominated. Worldwide, women surgeons are confronted with gender bias and face numerous challenges and obstacles in terms of competence, work ethic, unequal job opportunities, and undertaking academic or professional leadership roles. Creating a supportive environment where women surgeons can succeed will have a positive impact on society as a whole.
